DotNet-MXL-Parsing-for-Arduino

Parses MXL to an output to be used on Arduino

Thanks to Shvelo who's Ruby code got me pointed in the right direction https://github.com/shvelo/musicxml_to_arduino

This is not a pretty or complete solution. It was just enough to get what I wanted done and was written in a very short amount of time.

MXL is an XML format for sheet music. The code allows you to parse the notes, duration and tempo information from the MXL in a format that is easy to place in your Arduino code.

MXL is sometimes PKZipped - app contains neccessary code to unpackage
MXL files often contain multiple voices or sets of notes played together - app accounts for this
Arduino Uno has a limit of file size - app allows you to control how many notes are generated
